Why was moshquerade banned?

[Amused]

The problem is not the link.

The problem is the Mosh should have known better to put up that link without a NSFW tag.

Those that are complaining did not bother looking at where the NSFW was placed.

This reaction is a bit over the top, Mods. There is no nudity in that picture whatsoever and you can see worse on prime time TV. Hell, you can see more with most bathing suits at any public beach or pool!

Hell, the mod didn't even delete the link!

I really must protest.

Sadly, it's all perception. If the mod thinks it constitutes porn even though everyone else thinks/knowns otherwise, they over-rule.

Hey, at least it's ONLY a week!

Been in the same situation as Mosh once, and it was for a month.

Like I said, far racier pics have been posted here without such bannage.

Kirsten Dunst is doing porn now?

BTW-I posted a protest in the thread and was practically threatened with a vacation.

I also think it was a bad decision.

I agree that it was an over-reaction, BUT I disagree in that I've seen many people banned for a lot less. (including myself!)

Frankly posting that pic was bad judgement ... I'm sure there are many other pics where Dunst looks hot that arn't questionable.

If one of the mods thinks so.....they have the authority to do whatever they deem necessary. Key word is perception.

posting Dunst in a nun outfit?

I'm sorry. Maybe I've seen too much actual real porn, but I fail to see something questionable in that picture.

I'm not basing that statment on my personal opinion ... as far as I'm concerned theres nothing wrong with with the chosen pic, but then my opinion isn't the one that counts!

My point is that I'm not surprised at the vacation, nothing more.


Edited for clarity

I have seen much worse in OT before. Heck I saw worse on the walk to work this morning.

Not bannable in my opinion, but my opinion means squat.

This is exactly why Kinky Mod should be the only mod patrolling babe threads.

 

[DrPizza]

A. I'm old-fashioned. But, I definitely didn't find that image "NSFW."

B. What happened to "common sense"?? NSFW??! What the heck does someone expect in what amounts to a "babe thread." Seriously - I expected to see much racier images (only to be disappointed 😉 ) If you're at work, and still managing to squeeze in some ATOT time, common sense dictates that a thread about a celebrity's hotness is definitely of bounds for a SFW surfing. Even IF the image was NSFW (and I really don't think it was), a specific warning shouldn't be necessary in a thread with that title.

Oh, btw, I support a vacation for Mosh to punish her for using a heavily airbrushed picture to support a claim of hotness. 😛

Amused, your thread title is a bit misleading. Seems he was given a vacation not a ban (and based on your post and reading the linked thread, I tend to agree with your position. That said, there may be more to it that I'm not aware of).

 

[Amused]

Sorry, mods. But that pic is no racier than a bikini pic. NSFW was hardly necessary.

If your work is that prude, it's best to not click on ANY pic links.

My protest stands. The vacation was an over-reaction and completely uncalled for.

That and $6.00 will get you a cup of coffee at Starbucks.

what's the difference between a ban and a vacation?

PS: Mosh is a girl.
